Another Reason to Hate the BE300....it's better then PPC NOW


Postby sponge » Jul 13, 2002 @ 8:48pm

This thread serves nothing for spam. There is nothing here that the PPC can't do, besides the fully animated screens. Big deal, they take up resources and get in the way. We've been able to do everything you say for a long time.

Give us a REAL reason to think the BE-300 is better the PPC, then come back and tell us.

We've had Linux on iPaq for a long time, what makes the BE-300 special? Changing at will? *yawn*

YES WE CAN! Obviously you are very unedcuated about PocketPCs.

What the hell is a PPC format only? You serve no purpose but to banter on with butchered terms that would make PR people cry.

It may be a fun hacking toy, but if you actually need to do something with it, good luck.

Stop acting like your so special because you can run PocketHeretic, a very old program even on PPC standards.

Not impressed is not strong enough of a word for what I got out of this.

Better than PPC.. yea it's as better than the PPC as the Palm's power is better to PocketPC's
holy internets batman.

Better than pocketpc now hummmm....NOT.
Don't get me wrong I'm not against this little device but you need a reality check.Linux-big deal, have it running on my old philips nino and I'm sure that it will run better on my ipaq when I upgrade to a better pocketpc(for now I'm happy with my ipaq)

Better graphics come on it a today screen who cares! as for the games look about the same if not less graphicly.... as for software choice(good software not crap)Hands down pocketpc.

Overall abillity to do things pocketpc wins o'well

And yes I have used one(be300 that is)

Just stating this because that was a bold statement to make about pocketpc!

Oh well sorry you don't see it.

I did say in my last comment that the PPC does beat us, but the fact remains it is gaining on the PPC.

X-scale will no doubt put everything to shame.

Now that said on my own I am seeing this beauty tear the pants off my E-125 ( not over clocked ) on a daily basis.

Now to the if I want to do anything with my PDA remark:

We have .doc edit ability , we have tons of freeware titles available, plus many porgrams that can be had for the $5-$10 range that add function to the Unit.

So if I raised an eye-brow or two then I got my reaction.

I mean How can I truely say it's all that when it has no IR...........Yet *he he*

But who cares?

It seems to me that you're fighting a war that doesn't even exist.

Yeah well I had a program that had a Start menu or at least something like it on my old m100...and that makes it better than a Pocket PC? Then why the heck did I upgrade? :oops: *rips hair out*
